Dissociation Flashcards
What happens when a acid dissociate in water.
It will form hydrogen ion( H+)
Dissociation
The separation of inorganic acids, bases and salts into ions in a solution.
What happens when a base dissociates in water
It forms hydroxide ions(OH-)
What happens when a salt dissociation in water.
It will form cations and anions. Either are which are hydrogen ions or hydroxide ion.
What is a ph scale.
Is it based on the concentration of hydrogen ions in a solution. (How basic or acidic the solution is).
Enzyme
Is the catalyst is a living cell that are highly specific, extremely efficient and subject to cellular controls.
It is a protein.
DNA
Deoxyribonucleic acid, two strands. It forms the inherited genetic material inside each human cell
RNA
Ribonucleic acid. One strand. Second type of nucleic acid. It relays instruction from the genes to guide each cell’s synthesis of proteins from amino acids.
ATP
Adenosine triphosphate. Energy molecule
What are five categories of organic compounds.
Lipids, carbohydrates, proteins, ATP, nucleic acid.
The monomers of proteins
Are amino acids
In humans each gene is a?
